Common Wealth Games 2010



The Commonwealth games start today. This is the 19th edition of the games.
The last time I attended the games was in 1998 when they were held in 1998.
It was in Kuala Lumpur and I had gone to see the Hockey Match at Bukit Jalil.

Even though there have been stories of all wrong reasons in the media regarding
the games, but still I feel it is a reason to be proud of. The main reasons are
- no country has withdrawn
- the games have not been delayed.

Now the games have to be conducted well. It would help for a few things.
- be a test if we can go ahead and conduct the olympics.
- new infra would help young players to have world class amenities.
- we will be known in the world, that other than IT we can do many more things.

We have already seen a lot of improvements in terms of
- T3 at Delhi Airport.
- Wider highways
- Green Busses etc.

So let us enjoy the spirit, love the games, and hope for the best.
